Fargo to unveil new “game changing” product at their eighth consecutive Multimodal exhibit.
2015 sees the eighth consecutive year that Fargo Systems Ltd, the leading multimodal logistics software provider, will exhibit at the Multimodal Show, at the NEC Birmingham. (28th-30th April, Stand no. 268)
With last year’s show attracting more than 7,000 visitors, Multimodal is the UK and Ireland’s leading freight transport and logistics exhibition, and Fargo Systems Ltd (FSL) has exhibited every year since its launch in 2008. However, this year brings particular excitement to the team as they are able to demonstrate their innovative new product, TOPS.WEB.
TOPS.WEB is an internet portal designed to bring a wealth of benefits to its users. For example, TOBS.WEB will allow consignee/consignors to view live job information; subcontractors to retrieve job orders and provide updates; and global customer service teams or intermodal users to easily view job information, job updates and even service capacity levels before taking new bookings.
In 2011, FSL launched ‘TOPS…on the go’, a handheld mobile device which allows for information and updates to flow seamlessly between drivers and transport operators, through services such as GPS tracking, job order despatch (with automatic status updates back from drivers) and electronic proof of deliveries. TOPS.WEB takes this visibility even further, by providing customers and consignees with live, real-time job updates and subcontractors with a portal to download collection and delivery notes, update job times, statuses and upload PODs.
This technology enables an openness of real-time information sharing with all those who need it and will help reduce costs and improve service quality both at the same time.
Steve Collins, General Manager of FSL said, “TOPS.WEB offers something completely innovative in that it allows, for the first time, not just subcontractors, customers and consignees but also customs agents, inland terminals and other parties to access total live visibility to the whole supply chain; all of this using of one, singular platform. With this in mind, TOPS.WEB is set to revolutionise the way that suppliers and customers do business. It’s truly a game changer for the freight transport industry.”
He continues, “The release of TOPS.WEB has been long awaited, and the FSL team are very excited to be able to demonstrate its groundbreaking advantages at the up and coming Multimodal Show.”
Every year, Multimodal’s massive logistics and supply chain event, sees cargo owners, manufactures, wholesalers, retailers, suppliers and shippers come together under one roof to network, promote their brand and discover new ways to run a more efficient supply chain.
With FSL’s new and existing software specialising in transport and logistics efficiency, the company is expertly positioned to provide software solutions to customers who need to find better ways of optimising their supply chain and transportation movements.
As well as the introduction of their state of the art TOPS.WEB system, the team will also be giving interactive demonstrations of their unique TOPS platform and the ‘TOPS…on the go’ Smartphone extension for drivers and subcontractors.
